NASA Places Coverage for Rocketeer Tracy C. Dyson, Crewmates Come Back

.NASA rocketeer Tracy C. Dyson, accompanied by Roscosmos cosmonauts Nikolai Chub as well as Oleg Kononenko, are going to deviate the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz MS-25 space probe, as well as go back to The planet.Dyson, Chub, and Kononenko will undock from the orbiting lab's Prichal element at 4:37 a.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 23, heading for a parachute-assisted landing at 8 a.m. (5 p.m. Kazakhstan opportunity) on the steppe of Kazakhstan, southeast of the city of Dzhezkazgan.NASA's real-time protection of return as well as relevant tasks will certainly flow on NASA+ and also the organization's site. Learn how to flow NASA web content by means of a range of systems, including social media.An improvement of demand ceremony likewise will stream on NASA systems at 10:15 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 22. Kononenko will entrust station demand to NASA rocketeer Suni Williams for Expedition 72, which starts during the time of undocking.Stretching over 184 days precede, Dyson's goal features covering 2,944 orbits of the Planet as well as an experience of 78 thousand kilometers. The Soyuz MS-25 space capsule introduced March 23, as well as arrived at the terminal March 25, along with Dyson, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy, and also spaceflight attendee Marina Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy and Vasilevskaya were aboard the terminal for 12 times just before coming back home with NASA rocketeer Loral O'Hara on April 6.Kononenko as well as Chub, that launched with O'Hara to the station on the Soyuz MS-24 space capsule last September, will definitely come back after 374 times precede and also a journey of 158.6 million miles, extending 5,984 orbits.Dyson invested her fourth spaceflight aboard the station as an Expedition 70 as well as 71 air travel designer, and departs along with Kononenko, finishing his fifth air travel into space as well as building up an all-time report 1,111 days in orbit, and also Chub, that finished his initial spaceflight.After going back to Planet, the 3 staff participants will soar on a helicopter from the landing website to the recuperation hosting area of Karaganda, Kazakhstan. Dyson is going to board a NASA airplane and also go back to Houston, while Kononenko as well as Chub are going to depart for a training base in Superstar Urban area, Russia.NASA's coverage is as observes (perpetuity Eastern as well as subject to change based on real-time operations):.Sunday, Sept. 22.10:15 a.m.-- Trip 71/72 adjustment of command ceremony begins on NASA+ and the firm's website.Monday, Sept. 23.12:45 a.m.-- Hatch closing insurance coverage begins on NASA+ as well as the agency's site.1:05 a.m.-- Hatch closing.4 a.m.-- Undocking protection begins on NASA+ and the organization's web site.4:37 a.m.-- Undocking.6:45 a.m.-- Protection begins for deorbit burn, entry, and landing on NASA+ as well as the agency's website.7:05 a.m.-- Deorbit get rid of.8 a.m.-- Touchdown.For more than two decades, folks have stayed as well as operated continuously aboard the International Spaceport station, evolving scientific knowledge, and also creating analysis breakthroughs that are actually not achievable on Earth. The station is a crucial testbed for NASA to comprehend as well as conquer the difficulties of long-duration spaceflight and to broaden industrial chances in low The planet orbit. As commercial firms focus on supplying human room transport solutions and destinations as aspect of a robust reduced Planet orbit economic situation, NASA is actually focusing even more sources on deep space goals to the Moon as aspect of Artemis in preparation for potential human purposes to Mars.Learn more about International Space Station analysis and operations at:.https://www.nasa.gov/station.- end-.Josh Finch/ Claire O'SheaHeadquarters, Washington202-358-1100joshua.a.finch@nasa.gov/ claire.a.o'shea@nasa.gov.Sandra JonesJohnson Room Facility, Houston281-483-5111sandra.p.jones@nasa.gov.
